Bitesize Beginners/Improvers
Side Core Strength - 20 mins
A short session to target the side core. Strong obliques mean a more resilient spine, as these muscles help to put on the brakes if any sudden, unwanted rotation occurs, so that the lower back and spinal discs don't end up absorbing the impact instead.

Hips: Strengthen & Restore - 30 mins
I've designed today's class to provide balanced care for our hips. First, we'll strengthen our hips through controlled joint articulations and progressive mobility work. Afterwards, we'll close the practice with relaxing restorative yoga, which can be so helpful for releasing tension linked to a frazzled nervous system!

Neck and Shoulder Melt - 44 mins
Let's move to melt away the tension from the neck and shoulders, muscle by muscle. Whatever stress or weight you are carrying with you today - whether it's from work or school exams - we are going to leave it behind. Allow that stress to dissolve into the background as we anchor our focus entirely on the body and the breath.

Free Up Your Lower Back - 27 mins
For me, freedom of movement in the lower back means having the resilience and flexibility to adapt to every twist and turn of daily life, both on and off our yoga mat. We begin today's class with intentional breathwork, activating the deep core muscles that safeguard the spine. Next we use the ground for supported, reclined lower back movements to gently release stiffness. We finish with a mindful, flowing sequence that encourages functional stabilisation, leaving our movements feeling free.
Hatha Yoga
Wide Open - 39 mins
Let's move to unhunch, unwind and open up expansive space across the chest. As always in our hatha classes we integrate plenty of strength work, and our upper back will benefit today from movements which activate the muscles between the shoulder blades. We'll close our practice standing taller and feeling realigned.
Hatha Flow Yoga
Flow to Flourish - 42 mins
Whilst we all have our favourite yoga poses, I hope you find joy in feeling your body flourish through movements that are strong, agile and mobile. The sequencing today includes a fun challenge in Cleopatra pose that will draw on your hip flexibility and shoulder strength combined.
Vinyasa Yoga
Lizard - 38 mins
Today's class explores lizard pose as a traditional longer-held posture, but also as a dynamic movement pattern. It will be a fun way to work on moving through big hip ranges with plenty of control, strength and mindfulness.
